Internet Vikings International AB is authorised, without compensation, to relinquish
ownership rights and add an external third party owner to the domain.

ownership structure, financial status, rights, duties or any other conditions that may directly
or indirectly affect the ownership rights.

regarding reason, size, nature or time frame, be exempt from any consequences, demands or
decisions related to the User's relationship to, and use of, any third party for Domain
Holding.
b. Restoration of a domain after (a redemption period)
Given the different procedures and rules for a domain's redemption period, certain domains may be
restored after the onset of the redemption period. Such a restoration bears a cost for the User that is
indicated on the order confirmation and/or invoice.
Support regarding the service is provided free of charge by email and/or via the Internet Vikings
International AB website/customer service.
